Node Resources

Certain nodes may offer, as part of the contract under which a netlet is running, access to low level resources on that node. These resources are not necessarily Services, because they are not uniformly available across the Jtrix. Location and connection to such resources is not defined in the base layer of Jtrix.

Raw disk space, fixed IP addresses, and hardware accelerators for various protocols or mathematical operations are examples of such resources.
